Further these letter grades carry points associated with them in a quantified hierarchy. For example if a student gets the Grades in one semester A, A, B, B, B, D in the subjects having 2(s1), 4(s2), 4(s3), 4(s4), 4(s5), 2(s6) credits respectively, The SGPA is calculated from the following : 3

SGPA = [9(A) 2(s1) + 9(A) 4(s2) + 8(B) 4(s3) + 8(B) 4(s4) + 8(B) 4(s5) + 6(D) 2(s6)] / [2(s1) + 4(s2) + 4(s3) + 4(s4) + 4(s5) + 2(s6)] =162/20 = 8.1 If a student gets the grades in another semester D, A, B, C, A, E, A in the subjects having credits 4(s1), 2(s2), 4(s3), 2(s4), 4(s5), 4(s6), 2(s7) respectively, The SGPA is SGPA = [6(D) 4(s1) + 9(A) 2(s2) + 8(B) 4(s3) + 7(C) 2(s4) + 9(A) 4(s5) + 5(E) 4(s6) + 9(A) 2(s7 ) ] / [4(s1) + 2(s2) + 4(s3) + 2(s4) + 4(s5) + 4(s6) + 2(s7)] = 162/22 = 7.36 The CGPA of the above two semesters is CGPA = (9 2 + 9 4 + 8 4 + 8 4 + 8 4 + 6 2 + 6 4 + 9 2 + 8 4 + 7 2 + 9 4 + 5 9 + 9 2) /(22 + 20) = 7.7 6.1 A candidate shall be declared to have passed in any subject (theory) if he /she secures not less than E Grade in theory and practical/industrial training/project, provided that the result otherwise is withheld. 6.2 A candidate shall be deemed to have satisfied the minimum requirement for the award of the Degree; (i) If he/she is declared to have passed all the subjects (theory and practical subjects) included in the Scheme of Examination of 4 semesters and (ii) If he/she secures 5.0 CGPA by the end of fourth semester. 6.3 A candidate may be permitted to improve his/her performance by reappearing for the whole of the University examinations, only in all the theory subjects of a semester , after completion of the 2 years course of study and during the four consecutive examinations only. Such an improvement can be availed of only once, for each of the semester examinations of the course of study, provided that all the subjects of the semester shall have been passed as per the clause 6.1. When considered in its totality, better of the two performances (as a whole but not subject wise) shall be taken into consideration for the purpose of awarding First Class. There shall be no subject wise improvement permitted in any semester of study for the above purpose. In any case, no such improvement shall be permitted after completion of four academic years from the year of admission. 6.4 Candidates, who fail to satisfy clause 6.2 (ii) may be permitted to obtain 5.0 CGPA within 2 years after completing the course of study by appearing at the University examinations only of M.E/M.Tech/M.Planning subjects of their choice. Any candidate who fails to attain the minimum CGPA of 5.0 even after such appearances, during a total of four academic years from the year of admission, shall become ineligible for the award of M.E/ M.Tech/M.Planing Degree. 6.5 There shall be no provision for the improvement of internal assessment marks in any theory or practical subject in any semester of study. 4

7.

Whenever there is a change of regulations, scheme and syllabi, a candidate who fails in any subject or who wants to improve his/her performance as per clause 6.4 , will be permitted to appear for the University examinations conducted during the subsequent 2 years only, under the previous regulations, scheme and syllabi. 8. All the candidates who have satisfied the minimum requirement as specified above, shall be arranged in two classes (first class and second class) based on the CGPA obtained in the examinations. (i) The First Class is awarded for those who have obtained a CGPA of 6.0 and above, and (ii) The Second Class is awarded for those who obtained a CGPA of 5.0 and above but less than 6.0. Candidates who pass in first class without failure in any one of the subjects in the entire course of study and obtained a CGPA of 7.0 and above shall be declared to have passed in First Class with Distinction. However, candidates who have improved their performance as per clause 6.4 shall not be eligible to be awarded First Class with Distinction. 9. The CGPA can be converted to percentage by multiplying CGPA with 10.0, in case of requirement by any other University or any other purpose.
